Abstract. The readymade garment industry of Bangladesh has expanded dramatically over the last three decades. Traditionally, the jute industry dominated the industrial sector of the country until the 1970s. Since the early 1980s, the readymade garment industry has emerged as an important player in the economy of the country and has gradually replaced the jute industry. Although Bangladesh is a garments based country, in most of the garments, employees work manually though there are some error in the software and also those software do not work properly. We developed a system which highlighted the style sheet information, export L/C, back to back L/C, U/D preparation, input commercial invoice, export invoice and so on, which save time and money, increased data communication and transmission and faster data retrieval. Keywords: Export, import, readymade, garments.

Introduction
Administration is the function of industry concerned in the determination of corporate policy, the co-ordination of finance, production, and distribution, the settlement of the compass of the organization, and the ultimate control of the executive. Meanwhile, management is the function in industry concerned in the execution of policy, which is within the limits set up by administration, and the employment of the organization for the particular objects set before it. Although literature on the field of business management dates back to the late nineteenth century, the study of human service management and administration is relatively recent.

Q.1.Was playing Jeopardy a good way to test intelligence of machines? Why or why not?
The use of the supercomputer IBM Watson in the Jeopardy American television show was a very good way to test it. Since the show is all about asking the contestants questions from wide range of topics including sciences and history, it will test the ability of Watson to come up with a precise answer. In order to do this, it is fed all the information it needs to participate in the game. The most important part is the process it takes in giving out the answer and the arguments it accompanies it with. (Loftus, 2009). The Jeopardy game provides a good platform since it involves asking question random questions and expects right answers from the participants.
Q.2. Is Watson a good example of computer system intelligence similar to humans?
Watson demonstrates a very good example of intelligence similar to that of humans. It is able to accept questions, analyse them, determine what they require and give the correct answer. However, the requirements needed by the computer to come up with the answer is very different from humans. The computer will need to be fed all the...
